Produktbeschreibung

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The hostess, Barbara Wainscott, had a fastidious sense of detail. She set out mirrored dinner tables that reflected the richly appointed place settings and the glittering jewels on the ladies. She ordered a nursery's worth of roses, lilacs, crocuses, and lilies of the valley to festoon every empty space.

#2 Barbara had been preparing her whole life for this party. She came from a family that had lost everything in the Great Depression. Her father had made a good living as a project manager on major buildings in Manhattan, but Barbara grew up learning that her family had once known rich, advantaged times that seemed forever lost.

#3 Palm Beach was the most exclusive resort community in the world, and the most socially segregated town in America. When David was a young man, he could not have joined two other clubs on the island, the Sailfish Club and the Beach Club, but when faced with legal and political challenge, they changed their policies.

#4 Palm Beach is the most controlled and exclusionary town in America. It is a costume party where people can wear whatever outfit they want as long as the mask never falls.
